Application Process

The host site application period for 2012 is now closed.

Those that submitted an application to be a host site for the PHAP class of 2012 are agreeing to the terms listed in the PHAP Host Site Agreement to Detail.  If your host site is selected to host an associate, the PHAP Host Site Agreement to Detail [PDF - 326KB] must be signed by the appropriate staff for your health department and submitted to PHAP (phap@cdc.gov) by July 5, 2012. 

PHAP recommends that prospective host sites visit this website often to find updates, including when the host site application opens next year and the required supporting documents.  The PHAP Host Site Application typically consists of two components: an application and a signed PHAP Host Site Agreement to Detail.
